After carefully looking at how the action was sitting in the stock I determined it was riding high on the left side at the barrel locking nut. When the action sat in the stock, the rear tang was slightly lifted and tilted. When I pushed down on the tang the action would rock at the barrel locking nut. I carefully began sanding the area and noticed the barrel moving away from the stock. Eventually the action sat even and the barrel was not touching the stock. I checked the center line as well as how the sides of the ejection port sat next to the stock. Everything looked good and the action seems to sit very nicely in the stock . I floated the barrel and glass bedded the stock with Acra-glass.

I hope to get some range time in this weekend.

Thanks,
